| In his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus Wittgenstein claimed that the sign of identity is not an essential constituent of correct logical notation and should be eliminated and replaced with an exclusive interpretation of quantifiers. The goal of the thesis is to investigate to what extent this move is feasible. In particular, possibilities of having a naive set theory (i.e. a set theory with unrestricted comprehension and axiom of extensionality), in which quantifiers are interpreted exclusively, will be explored. One can formulate various versions of such a theory differing especially in how parameters are used in the comprehension schema. The technical part of the thesis will analyze which versions lead to a contradictory system (this is related to an open problem formulated by Jakko Hintikka). The philosophical part will discuss what the inconsistent versions have in common and which basic principles are responsible for the contradiction. The thesis should also reflect the broader philosophical context of this problem and related discussion from Ludwig Wittgenstein to modern philosophers like Kai Wehmeier. |
